CVE-2025-40328
Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
smb: client: fix potential UAF in smb2_close_cached_fid()
find_or_create_cached_dir() could grab a new reference after kref_put() had seen the refcount drop to zero but before cfid_list_lock is acquired in smb2_close_cached_fid(), leading to use-after-free.
Switch to kref_put_lock() so cfid_release() is called with cfid_list_lock held, closing that gap.
